Speedy deletion nomination of The Devil in Miss Jones (Band)


A tag has been placed on The Devil in Miss Jones (Band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. red dogsix (talk) 05:29, 25 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi. I saw your note contesting this deletion. The problem is, that I think you've misunderstood what Wikipedia is for. The project documents events and knowledge that is already widely known and documented elsewhere. It's not the place to promote a band; we can only report on artists that have already recorded and toured extensively. I do try and rescue articles where I can, but in this case a search for the band found a Gumtree advert for a new manager - now, the Beatles, the Stones and the Who have all been in this same dilemma, but they didn't write a local classified ad to resolve it! You'll probably find the band will be successful on its own merits without any Wikipedia page in any case, so I'd concentrate on improving its presence on other social media, such as Pinterest or Medium.
